Wichita’s got two new MLB stars! Tyner Horn, a Goddard-Eisenhower pitcher, was drafted by the Reds in the 3rd round after a solid college run at Nebraska. Meanwhile, Paul Schoenfeld, an outfielder from Bishop Carroll, snagged a spot with the Diamondbacks in the 8th round after a blazing .327 season at West Virginia that helped them reach the College World Series. Local pride, hard work, and big-league dreams—these guys just took the next step.
